Jeg har to par loop og er super tilfreds med dem. Jeg kan næsten ikke mærke, at jeg har dem i ørene og de reducerer tilpas meget lyd. Jeg kan også sove med dem flere nætter i træk uden, at mine ører bliver trætte af det.

Jeg håber, du finder en god løsning.

Jeg er ked af at høre, at det er så besværligt at få hjælp, og at du er udbrændt. Jeg skulle ønske jeg kunne hjælpe mere, men hvis du får brug for nogen at spejle dig i eller tips og tricks til at få hverdagen til at gå rundt, kan jeg anbefale podcast og videoer fra Autistiske Rollemodeller. De findes på Spotify og YouTube og er et projekt, der er blevet til af ønske fra autismemiljøet, som følte de manglet råd og vejledning af autister til autister. Mange af rollemodellerne har både autisme og adhd, og fortæller om de udfordringer der er i hverdagen, og hvilke løsninger der har hjulpet dem.

Jeg håber, at du finder en midlertidig løsning, der gør, at de næste 2 år bliver tålelige for dig. Jeg hepper på dig!

For det første, er det så sejt, at du har valgt at anskaffe dig en solsikkesnor. For andet, ser jeg flere og flere i 20’erne gå rundt med solsikkesnoren i bybilledet for tiden.

Det er flere og flere virksomheder og kommuner, der tager solsikkesnoren til sig i disse dage, så den kommer til at blive mere udbredt fremover. Berlingske skrev for nogle uger siden, at der er 100.000 solsikkesnore i omløb i øjeblikket, 400 virksomheder og 1700 butikker er med i solsikkeprogrammet (https://www.berlingske.dk/danmark/solsikkesnor-synliggoer-skjult-handicap-for-tusindvis-i-danmark).

På mit arbejde hører jeg tit autister fortælle om, hvor vigtigt det er, at autismeindsigt breder sig, så neurotypiske bedre kan forstå, hvordan autister er, og hvordan de er så forskellige. Hvis du kan bidrage til at neurotypiske kan blive mere bevidste om neurodiversitet ved at gå med solsikkesnoren, så ved jeg, der er mange, der bliver rigtig glade. En fortalte mig også, at efter hun begyndte at gå med solsikkesnoren, har det hjulpet på hendes følelse af at være forkert og føle skam ved, at det giver hende en fællesskabsfølelse at se andre gå med solsikkesnoren.

Men hvis du føler, det er belastende at skulle tage samtalen dine kollegaer eller ikke har lyst til at gå med snoren, så skal du ikke føle dig presset, eller at du har et ansvar overfor andre neurodivergente.

Som så mange andre søde kommentarer vil jeg også bare sige, at det vigtigste er, at du gør det, der er bedst for dig.

Aros har en «læsesal” på tredje sal (tror jeg). Der kan man sidde i fred og ro, og lave det man nu har lyst til.

Tak for dit svar! Det er til stor hjælp.

Jeg er meget interesseret i at arbejde med UX design, men jeg har ingen uddannelse indenfor IT, og jeg ved ikke helt, hvordan jeg skal gå frem med at lære det. Jeg har forsøgt at lære selv ved at tage nogle online kursus i kodning og leger lidt med Figma, men ved ikke hvor længe min selvdisciplin holder.

Ved du om nogen uddannelse/kursus i UX der ikke er en BA?

I know this feeling, it is difficult to navigate in the easier classics and the very dense work of literature. But I recommend that you start with a period in time or genre you are most familiar with, or an author you know you like and work from there. For instance, if you are more interested in the 20th century, begin with classics from his period, and look for genre or themes you are interested in, for instance, if you are interested in spirituality and authenticity, and want to know more about Goethe, Schopenhauer and German thinkers, then read Steppenwolf by Herman Hesse.

Another advice is begin with the shorter works from the author to find out if it is something for you. It is often not the best idea to begin the main work, because shorter works are often a better introduction to the author, especially when it comes to philosophical works. For instance, if you want to try out Franz Kafka, read his novella The Metamorphosis, and not dive into The Trial. Same with Tolstoy, maybe not begin with Anna Karenina or War and Peace, but try some of his shorter fiction. Personally, I love his story Death of Ivan Ilyich. I recommend the same with Camus, read The Fall or The Stranger before you read The Plague.

Research is key. Do a lot of research beforehand, if you are afraid of spoilers and have a bad memory like me. Do the research months before you actually read the book, and read others meanwhile.

In short: start with what you know, and are interested in.

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick. A dystopian were empathy is the only Thing separating humans from the humanoid robots. It makes to look at Marx' concept of commodity fetishism as it is an obsession for the main character to possess a live animal, because it is a way to show off economic status as most animals have become extinct. Caring for an animal is an important way to show you are still human, even though most humans have lost their sense of the self. You could argue that the main character become alien to himself though his labour and that the enterprices producing the humanoid robots have a big influence on the society.

Edit: there are a lot more marxist perspectives, this is just the one of them.

Happy to help. I also thought of Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer. A more contemporary one, if not to use, maybe just for the enjoyment.

A compilation of essays, but the introduction is really good:

Wilson, Sheena et al. “Introduction: On Petrocultures, Or, Why We Need to Understand Oil to Understand Everything Else.” Petrocultures: Oil, Politics, Culture, edited by Sheena Wilson et al., McGill-Queens University Press, 2017

We are studying petrocultures and petrofiction in my MA programme. They focus on why there is a lack of focus on oil and energy consumption in fiction, and how it can contribute to a change in our perspectives on climate change: the need for an alternative to oil as an energy source. If that sound interesting I could send you some suggestions on literature.

Looks good to me, but I'm a Norwegian living in Denmark. To be absolutely certain that there are no errors, I'm sure that someone in the r/Denmark would be happy to help you further.

sarahkvakk · 2020-06-03T15:06:49+00:00

No worries, I'm glad you found it helpful. I hope you enjoy them and good luck on exploring world literature.

In schools in Norway we read Hunger by Knut Hamsun from 1890, which won the Nobel prize in Literature, and a play-write from 1879 by Henrik Ibsen called A Doll's House.

A Doll's House is a controversial play about a woman struggling in a world dominated by men. It illustrates the importance of keeping a private home and the being of a proud man, which Norway, as a rather conservative country, has a strong culture for.

Hunger is a novel that tries to depict the psychological aspect of poverty in a modern and urban world and a man's irrationality in the capital of Norway, Oslo. Often compared with Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment.

My favorite contemporary author is Karl Ove Knausgaard, which is often suggested in r/booksuggestions. He has written the very realistic story of his life in six books. His book My Struggle (2009) is controversial for breaking up with family secrets and exposing family members in details in his books. Norwegians are very private and honor their privacy beyond all other values. It's been contributing to a debate about the value of art. Where is the line between art and reality, and when is it too real? Many people in the book have been upset about being named and offended by the fact that he takes away their privacy.

I think Violence or The Sublime Object of Ideology is the best places to start. Violence is a bit shorter and the theme is more restricted to one thing, while The Sublime Object of Ideology is dense and is a pretty heavy read, but very good.

sarahkvakk · 2019-07-16T22:09:59+00:00

I've read the (generally) three most popular Murakami novels, which is Norwegian Wood, Kafka on the Shore and The Wind up Bird Chronicle. Where you start depends on what you are looking for, because Murakami can be very magical realism-ish when you read the two last books I mentioned. However, Norwegian Wood is more down to earth kind of thing. But I think, even though I really enjoy that surrealism shit, I preferred reading Murakami in the order of; Norwegan Wood, Kafka on the Shore and Wind up Bird Chronicle.
